93880, Prothane Motor Mounts
Posted by freelancefool, Oct-15-05 11:45 PM
Just a quick question about the prothane motor mount inserts. These completely replace the rubber in the stock motor mounts correct?

Upon inspection yesterday, I realised that there was no rubber left in the stock front motor mount. I just want to make sure that I am not going to need to use window weld to patch this back together.

I searched, but was unable to come up with a specific answer to this. Thanks in advance for the help.

the sides it replaces completely. the front and rear are just inserts that fit into your stock rubber. i just got the kit a few weeks ago. works well.

thanks for the input. i guess this means i need to go buy the factory front and rear motor mounts so i can do the prothane mounts.

I may do that as well. I haven't quite made up my mind yet. I am still looking around to see what options I have and what would be the best bang for the buck.

That sounds really freaking tempting. How is the factory rubber in it? Still in pretty good shape?

You rock. I may buy your mount and the prothane set then instead of buying a solid front and the prothane set.
